Frank Ocean pulled a full-on Beyoncé last week, exploding the internet like only a surprise visual album from God’s gift to hip hop can. After a year of angsting about the delayed release of BLONDE, then another few days of confused rage when the album still didn’t drop when it was supposed to–hungry fans’s demands were finally satisfied with the one-two punch release of the live-stream visual ENDLESS, then, at long last, the hotly anticipated BLONDE.

And along the same vein of unexpected treats, Ocean has also spoiled fans with even more insight into that beautiful mind: a list of his Top 100 movies, which he included in the magazine “Boy’s Don’t Cry,” released alongside his album. Ocean’s work is rife with cinematic references, from Kubrick to Disney to David Lynch, so it should come as no surprise that his list is pretty damn impressive–replete with old school classics, auteur master strokes, foreign imports, and some arthouse indies even we’ve never heard of.
